John Rae is an award-winning, produced and optioned screenwriter and author whose characters are often flawed in a way that blinds them to the reality that surrounds them...characters who feel like outcasts, struggling to belong, only to learn on their journey that they belonged all along.

Think of Dorothy learning "there's no place like home." Jack Skellington lamenting "What have I done?"

This fixation stems from being a life-long geek who never quite fit in, yet quietly blended in everywhere.

His humor has been called dry, clever, and mischievous, blending dark, sardonic undertones with warmth. Imagine Bob Newhart and Jerry Seinfeld in a joke-battle against Michael Schur and Taika Waititi—laughing to tears at the absurdity they find in this frustrating world.

He believes that the universe has a wicked sense of humor, so long as we're open to it.
